This class was tough.

Course Overview:

I would recommend taking CHM 152 with Dr. Meyers because she is so animated as she teaches the subject! Her excitement made me excited about what I was learning. In class, she would have live demonstrations that correlated with what we were learning.

Course highlights:

I learned a lot about thermodynamics and nuclear reactions. In regards to nuclear reactions, she used real life applications that made the information extremely interesting to learn.

Hours per week:

9-11 hours

Advice for students:

Even though there are only four main overarching topics in the course, Dr. Meyers will make you work for the grade you want. Don't wait until the last minute to study for her tests. What I would recommend is study the material daily. It doesn't have to be a full blow study session. 30 minutes will be a perfect amount of time, but don't wait until the week before to start studying. You are learning so much information in a short time and they are pretty difficult topics to understand in the first place.

This class was tough.

Course Overview:

This course was a required class for my major, so I did not have a say in whether or not I took it. That being said, the professor is why I would highly recommend this course to everyone. Dr. Cruickshank was one of the best professors I have ever had. He made the topics interesting, encouraged team work, and was always willing to help his students.

Course highlights:

The content of this course was extensive and required a lot of effort on my part. Some of the topics that we focused on throughout the semester were entropy, free energy, chemical equilibrium, and acids and bases, to name a few.

Hours per week:

6-8 hours

Advice for students:

In order to succeed in this course you need to have fantastic time management skills, and an excellent work ethic. Also, do not be afraid to ask for help (i.e. go to office hours or attend the recitation class).
